    I think you should make a solar catamaran next. Add an acrylic bottom, and you've got yourself a solid floaty. I can be your huckleberry.

      @Skinflaps_Meatslapper 3 ปีที่แล้ว +10

      A solar cat would be doable, you'd have quite a bit more surface area for solar. I think a two person kayak based trimaran with solar panels between the hulls would be a perfect candidate for a useful and practical solar boat. Could get a lot more panel area and only need a single motor compared to a conventional single hull, so the top speed using pure solar would be considerably higher once you figure out the size of the motor and prop pitch. Secondary benefit is that both are good candidates for a small mast furling sail, pretty handy if you get stuck in overcast, and could theoretically drive the motor as a generator for your batteries while you're tooling around with a sail.

    This panel can put out close to 100 watts th-cam.com/users/postUgkxOqI2yqX0XVrhR2BMJciTWrHJpG8FhJyg when positioned in the appropriate southernly direction, tilted to the optimal angle for your latitude/date, and connected to a higher capacity device than a 500. The built in kickstand angle is a fixed at 50 degrees. Up to 20% more power can be output by selecting the actual date and latitude optimal angle.The 500 will only input 3.5A maximum at 18 volts for 63 watts. Some of the excess power from the panel can be fed into a USB battery bank, charged directly from the panel while also charging a 500. This will allow you to harvest as much as 63 + 15 = 78 watts.If this panel is used to charge a larger device, such as the power station, then its full output potential can be realized.

      @blahorgaslisk7763 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      There are so many things to think about when backing up a trailer that it gets ridiculous the first few times you try. And there is a BIG difference if the trailer has a single axle or if it has steerable front wheels. Driving forward is pretty simple, just remember to take any sharp turns with a very large marginal. Going backwards is an entirely different thing. With experience it will become pretty easy, but the first few times? Fugedabotit!
      One thing you need to know before trying to back up a trailer is to figure out the minimum turning radius. In a large open space try driving forward in as tight a circle that you can. Look in the rearview mirrors and note what it looks like. Do this for both directions. When backing up if the angle between the towing vehicle and the trailer is sharper than what you saw when running in a circle then you can't right it up again, it will only get worse so you will have to drive forward to straighten things up and try again.
      One thing you should try to do is use some one to direct you. Make sure you have signs for left, right, go and stop. That is the least you need to direct this. Then *follow the signals, do not try to second guess anything* . Whoever is directing you will see a lot more than you do and doesn't have the added stress of actually handling the car or truck. And finally, go slow! the moment you think you've got this and accelerate it's very likely that things will go wrong, and the faster you go the worse things will get.

      My grandfather actually built a boat by himself. The only thing he bought was the motor and a moter mount for it.
      Everything else he carved out of lumber (that I think he harvested from his own property) or wielded togther from surplus steel and he used some tubing he happened to have left over from when he built his house.
      A lot of people who didn't know he built it asked where he bought the boat.

    25 year truck driver tricks for making backing a trailer easier.
    1. Never let anyone rush you "stay calm"
    2. Back as slow as possible "use mirrors"
    3. Turn wheel less than 1/4 turn to keep straight.
    4. Turn in opposite direction to correct trailer direction.
    5. Pull up to straighten out when necessary.
    6. GOAL "get out and look" as many times as necessary.
    7. Everyone sucks at first, but with enough practice everyone your skills will improve.

      The slow speed is a great thing, for many years boat with displacement Hulls had a top speed of around 8 or 10. And a cruising speed of around 5 which is pretty close to what he's at you going to achieve with this. Although it could be a problem in rivers or ocean tides

    With Infinite range you can take your whole family on this boat to Hawaii then Australia and then to the Mediterranean and not use a drop of petrol. That is better than a Royal Caribbean Cruise.

    @PeterSripol One thing I was toying with (in my head) was gutting a jetski for it's water jet drive and using a electric motor instead of the gas engine. This might be an idea for you're power upgrade. Also less over all drag due to nothing hanging below the hull. Just a thought. All you're projects have been great and wait to see what you have planed for the electric boat.

    the motors on bottom of boat arent great. likely to get broken off hitting ground. and those direction fins too. better to just put outboard motors and use them for steering too. it would insulate the boat from some motor noise too specially if you use rubber mounts. the smoother your props and bottom of the boat the better too for drag.

    I absolutely love your solar boat! If you could double the roof in size and have 4 instead of 2 panels running sideways instead of front to back it could help with the speed. Also, would give a great sun protection to the passengers on the sunny side and make the ride more enjoyable for everyone regardless what side the sun is hitting. It may not be a bad idea to have a battery back up just in case clouds roll over. Sudden coulda happen quiet often in Florida especially from May till October.

    Pro tip to backing up with a trailer.
    First, put your hand at the bottom of the steering wheel.
    Second, watching in your mirror exclusively, discern which way you want your trailer to go and move your hand in that direction. DO NOT LET GO OF THE WHEEL.
    Third, do not over correct, use slight turns to initiate your turn, then turn in the opposite direction equally to follow the trailers intended direction. Again, using your mirror as a visual aid do not turn around.
    This is intended for all ages and capabilities.
